Background
The Afghan data leak will affect family's futures with serious consequences, taxes, social unrest & the potential the Taliban's influence will reach UK shores. Private sector mistakes of this magnitude would not be tolerated. The financial cost has been put at £7 billion, that doesn’t including future ongoing costs likely to be considerable. It's vital an independent review is conducted to ensure those responsible be held to account. The public should not bear the burdens of governmental errors.
